Hi Nicolas,

I just replied to a similar question in the Dutch forum part. Translated:

> [@Waarom gaat lamp 3x ongewenst knipperen na flow](https://community.homey.app/t/waarom-gaat-lamp-3x-ongewenst-knipperen-na-flow/92393/25):
>
> Choose 1 integration to use (I then always choose the non-Homey items, so at least the Ggl part keeps working, if Homey is doing nothing or has a bad day).  
> I put the duplicate items, those from Homey, in a 2nd house, and I have named it ‘Do not operate’.  
> So, this 2nd house, and the devices in it, are not being used.  
> I have not yet found another way to be able to ignore, or disable, certain devices.
